The key is to find the approach that works for you. There's a Chinese saying that goes: "If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you wan happiness for a 65 , go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, get rich. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody. "For thousands of years, the greatest thinkers have suggested the same thing: Happiness is found in helping others. Scientific research provides data to support the idea tha helping others may be the secret to living a life that is happier, healthier, and more 66 Giving can feel great. And as we learn early, it's better to give than to 67 . Plus, the more you give, the more you stand to gain happiness. Follow these tips: 1. Find your passion. It's not how much you give. It's how much love you put into giving. You may 68 one puroose more than others, and that's okay. Support the purpose that feels right for you 2. Give your time. The gift of time is often more valuable to the receiver, and more satisfying to th giver, than the gift of money. We don't all have the same amount of money, but we all have time. We can give some of this time to help others-whether a few hours each day, or a few days each year. 3. Give to groups with clear 69 . Michael Norton, a professor at Harvard Business School, in Massachusetts, says that "giving to a charity that clearly says what they're going to do with you money leads to more happiness. 4. Don't forget about yourself. "Selfless giving... easily becomes overwhelming(令人不知所措的)" psychologist Adam Grant says. He advises giving to others, 70 keeping your personal and emotional needs in mind.

Back then, it wasn't called ice cream, though. I71. it was knowr as"Su Shan (酥山)"or"Su He Shan(苏合山)." "Su" was a dairy product s_72 _ to cream or butter. It is believed to have been introduced to central China by nomads (游牧民) from the north. "Su" was not only tasty but also nutritious. According to some historical records, "Su Shan" was often made by women. They would heat “Su" until it melts and then carefully pour it onto a plate, shaping it into the form of a mountain or coral reef. Afterwards, they would f 73it in an icebox. Sometimes, sugar was added on top The dessert might also be d 74with some flowers and leaves to make it look more attractive. In his poem Ode to Su He Shan(《苏合山赋》), Tang poet Wang Lingran (王冷然) described how people enjoyed "Su Shan." "It is neither solid nor watery," he wrote. "It d 75 as soon as it touches your teeth." In The Noble Lady (《仕女图》). a famous fresco (湿壁画) found in the tomb of Crown Prince Zhanghuai (章怀太子茅), two out of the six ladies are holding "Su Shan."At first. researchers thought they were holding potted plants. Upon closer e 76 . they eoncluded that i was something more like today's ice cream, with flowers on top. “Su Shan" was a popular dish during the Tang and Song dynasties. However, only rich people and royalty(王族) could a 77 large iceboxes to prepare this summer treat. Luckily, today, we can all enjoy ice cream whenever we want! D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分) Dreams, Cheers and tears IUST think about it: How long is 46 seconds? A computer might take 46 seconds to start up. And it might take you that long to lace up your sneakers. But on August 4, swimmer Pan Zhanle swam 100 meters in 45.92 seconds. With their amazing speed, he and his teammates redefined(重新定义) the game. They became the first non-American team to win the Olympic men's 4x1oom medley relay in more than 40 years That was just one of China's many break through moments from this summer's Olympics. Three days earlier, Pan had shocked the world in the men's 1o0m freestyle. Like a flying fish, he touched the wall in 46.40 seconds. It was a new world record. Outside the pool, "Queen Wen," or Zheng Qinwen, won China's first Olympic tennis gold. Deng Yawen bagged China's first gold medal in BMX freestyle One thing that struck me was how young these champions are. Most of them were born this century. Diver Quan Hongchan already has three Olympic gold medals, yet she is only 17 years old. I spend my days writing for kids, but now, I'm finding myself writing about many of them because even at their young age, they're ready making waves on the world stage The gold medalists certainly got the most attention. Some athletes, however, made history even without winning medals. One of them is skater Cui Chenxi. In the women's skateboarding street final the 13-year-old finished fourth. It was China's best result so far in this Olympic event. Naturally, while some cried tears of joy, others shed tears of regret. Swimmer Zhang Yufei returned home with one silver and five bronze medals but no gold. The 26-year-old isn't sure abou her chances for the 2028 Games. All athletes want gold medals, but "it's a competitive world." Zhang said in an interview. "You can't always get what you want even if you've done your best." It will be another four years until the next Olympics, but our athletes are already dreaming big Do you also have a dream? How about chasing it alongside your favorite sports heroes? 78. Which country's team did Pan Zhanle and his teammates defeat in the Olympic men's 4x100m medley relay after more than 40 years? 79. Pan Zhanle set a new world record with a time of 46.40 seconds, didn't he? (1分) 80. What Olympic achievement did Zheng Oinwen make? 81. How did 13-year-old skater Cui Chenxi perform in the women's skateboarding street final 82. Why did Swimmer Zhang Yufei return home in tears of regret? 83. Do you think winning gold medals is a good way to measure an athlete's success? Why or why not? (3分) VII.Writing(作文)(共20分) 84.
